Original subtitles

Oh, I get it.

[Karen] Previously on Sistas.

His child is gonna have everything they need.

All right.

Gary, why are you always over here?

Oh, it's like that?

It's like that.

Fatima, I can't think about anything but my son.

Do you wanna go see him?

- You serious? - Yeah.

And I expect a return on my investment.

I'm an investment? What do you expect in return?

I want you to marry me.

What?

[music]

What are you talking about, Bayo?

Sabrina, did you really think I would put up

that kind of money and not want anything in return?

Oh my God, I'm not marrying you. I'm not marrying you.

Well, that is the condition of the bail money.

That is not legal.

It is in my country.

You're kidding, right? You're kidding.

No, I'm not.

Yeah, you are. This is a joke. This is a joke.

- Did you not read it? - Is there a camera...

Bayo, please stop playing with me.

I am not joking, Sabrina.

Okay.

Is this going to be a problem?

Yes! What do you mean? Yes, this is gonna be a problem.

Well, I expect when this is over,

you will come with me to Embicktou

and we will be married.

Okay, that is never going to happen.

Don't you like me?

Is this happening to me?

Yes, it is.

[music]

Bayo, I don't know you.

None of the nine other wives knew me.

They were all gifts from the farmers.

Oh my God.

That's all you have to say?

Actually, I have to go. I have to--

No, no, where are you going?

I have to go to my friend's house

because this is not making

- any sense. - Okay. Well, enjoy your freedom

for now because when we are married,

that is over with.

Bayo, hear me. I am not marrying you.

I don't know you.

Well, then I'll have your bail money revoked,

and you will go back to jail.

[music]

Okay.

[music]

Okay, if that's what I have to do then.

You would rather go to jail than marry me?

I don't know you, Bayo!

It's because I'm African?

It's because I don't know you. You don't know me.

So I can't marry you.

Well, then you will go to jail.

Fine.

I'm calling them now.

Do it.

This is so disappointing, Sabrina.

You know what? You're going to be sorry.

My mother was having them kill the big goat for you.

♪ My girls hold me down, When them boys mess around ♪

♪ My love life is a headache ♪

♪ we goin' out tonight 'cause I'm looking for love ♪

I have to go. I have to go.

Okay.

[sighing]

Mama.

She said no to the marriage. Don't kill the goat.

Yes, yes, she will be going back to jail.

I know, I know. I was trying to get my green card.

No, no. It's okay. It's okay. Don't worry. I will fix it.

I'll fix it.

Okay, goodbye.

She said you are a selfish and evil woman.

Well, I'm not any of those things. Okay?

You should be so sorry, Sabrina. You have nice childbearing hips.

I need to have 55 children in order to beat my brother

so we can populate our country.

Okay, I have to go, Bayo. We gotta go,

- Bayo. I'm-- - No, you don't need to go.

- Stay and talk to me. - No, no, no, no!

We're leaving, now.

- Okay. - Okay.

But I must say something before I go.

Oh my God.

You know, it is so horrible

the way Americans think of Africans.

You think we are all the same.

You think that all that stuff that I said just now is

what we Africans do.

But there's no contract to marry you.

And that was not my mother on the phone.

I don't want to marry you, and I don't have several wives.

And just because I don't like your friend

doesn't mean that I am close or narrow minded,

okay? In my focus of how the world works,

I don't like him for several reasons,

but it's fine.

Just make sure you both show up in court

so I can get my money back.

Enjoy your night.

I think I just got read.

[music]

What the hell?

Oh, hey.

Hey, what you doing out here?

Waiting for you.

Mmm, scared of getting flung again?

I just think we should go in as a unit.

Yeah, you're scared. That's okay.

Where is Sabrina?

She's on her way.

Okay.

- Can we just, can we do this? - No, no, no.

Uh, we need to talk first.

I need a drink first. Can we?

No, we have to wait for Sabrina.

- Okay, fine. - [Andi] Okay.

[breathing deeply]

Are you still stealing drinks from your job?

Would you like one?

Yes, thank you.

Mmm. Mm.

But come on. What's going on? Can you just...

- Okay, hey. Hi. - [Sabrina] Hey.

Okay, I have to tell you something.

What's going on? Why are we out here?

[inhaling]

Karen came up to the job angry with Zac and Fatima.

- What? - [Andi] Yes,

she was saying that the baby is Zac's

and that the baby's gonna get everything that it deserves.

- Are you kidding me? - You have another one?

But that's not all. Then Aaron comes up to the job and he says

that someone told him that the baby is his.

What? How, how, how, how's that?

I don't know.

Mmm. Mmm.

Somebody at that damn hospital. That's how.

Isn't that illegal?

Well, hell, we all know that.

Very illegal.

I mean, don't they have HIPAA laws or something?

Y'all are just gonna stand out here talking about me

- the whole time? - Karen!

[chuckling]

My purse is not

- the trash purse! - Come in. Let's go. Come on.

What you got to drink, girl?

Nothing for you, Danni.

- Hmm. - [Karen] Hey.

It's so good to see you again.

- Hey. - [Sabrina] Hey.

[breathing deeply]

[Danni] All right, come on, Karen. I need some alcohol now.

Why? You got enough in your purse.

[mocking]

[sighing]

[Karen laughing]

Karen, um, how are you?

I'm good, yeah.

Good.

- You look good. - Mm-hmm. Oh, thank you.

And calm.

- I'm calm too. Yeah. - Mmm, okay.

So, what are y'all doing here?

I thought you already know. She told us.

Ah, okay.

Yes, I, I told them.

Mm-hmm.

All right. Why were you at the job?

Wait a minute.

For what?

Uh, Karen, do you even wanna talk about this?

Mmm, yes, baby.

Well, I opened the door, so...

- Okay. - That's good. Hmm.

So, I called my doctor and talked to her about

how I keep being real calm and then real mad.

Batshit crazy.

Danni.

I'm just making an astute medical observation.

I'm pretty sure that's a scientific term.

Anyway, she wants me to come in tomorrow

to talk about it some more. But she gave me some information

about what's happening in my body.

You mean, you mean the baby? Pregnancy?

Yeah.

Okay, so we're blaming the baby?

[Andi] Danni.

No, I'm just, you know, I mean, I know pregnancy hormones

are a thing. I'm just...

Look, it's the baby, it's the stress,

it's Zac playing me.

- Hmm? Karen... - Um...

Yeah, he played me, Danni. Come on.

No, he, he didn't.

How are you gonna tell me that?

Karen, don't get up.

I'm not getting mad, and I, I know what's going on, okay?

You all saw how he came at me at the salon.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Yeah, we saw.

Yeah, that's because he loves you, Karen.

Right, that's exactly the point, Andi.

But he's with Fatima.

Okay, well, he's there now, but...

- That means he's with her then. - Danni...

Don't, don't listen.

- [Sabrina] Please stop. - I'll tell you something.

Y'all gonna piss me off, okay? Don't invite me

if you don't want the straight, no chaser Danni-ass truth.

I'm just saying.

Go ahead, Danni.

Thank you, Karen.

Yeah.

You know him better than any of us, right?

So you know he loves her.

You also know that,

you know, he got confused when he thought you were gone.

Danni.

No, Karen, he does love you.

He said it over and over and over and over.

And he did give you that money for your salon

because he loves you. But that love,

[inhaling]

it's different now. It's changed.

He's moved on. I believe that with all my heart.

Danni, he gave me that money because he knows

that this is his baby.

[music]

Is it, though?

- Really? - [Danni] Uh-uh.

Don't sit here

like we ain't been in some kinda soap opera

waiting on this information.

He is the father, okay?

- [Danni] Okay. - I said it.

He's the father, and I showed him proof. Andi, you saw it.

- Well, um... - Well what?

Just tell her.

- [Andi] Mm-- - Tell me what?

Aaron seems to think he is the father.

Why would he think that? What?

Did you tell him that?

No.

He said someone did.

Let me find out who it is.

You think it's somebody at the hospital?

I hope not. I mean, they will be in a world of trouble

- if they did. - Well, it's not his child.

Okay, well, then, um,

why, why would he think that it's his child?

I don't, I don't know, but I'mma call him.

And I'mma call him and I'mma just tell him

that it is Zac's baby.

Okay, you could do that.

[Karen] I will, yeah.

But...

But what?

Zac isn't on the paperwork.

Right. 'Cause I only had Aaron's DNA.

But he was excluded so it's Zac's.

[sighing]

Didn't know you could do all this on a fetus, you know?

- Who knew? - Yeah, I didn't know either

- until recently. - The miracle of science,

oh Gee.

- Karen... - Mm-mm, mm-mm, no.

What? Mm-mm, no?

Okay. Um...

I can't save you.

[inhaling]

[clearing throat and laughing nervously]

[inhaling]

Might you have been intimate with someone else

during that time?

Andi, who do you think I am?

Pew, pew.

I, I don't mean any offense. I'm--

Well, I'm offended.

Pew, pew, pew.

It was just the two of them, thank you.

- That's great. - Yep.

- That's clear. - [Andi] Yeah,

- we needed clarity. - It's very clear.

Speaking of, guess who's on a dating app?

Who? What?

Who's on a dating app?

Oh.

Professional lawyer seeking her counterpart.

How do you know that?

I'm everywhere, Andi.

Yeah, but how did you see my profile?

Small world.

Oh, so you just happen to be seeking a smart,

beautiful, young, black attorney in Atlanta?

No, I, like, looking at the landscape, you know,

seeing how I rank and, uh, I'm an apex predator.

[chuckling]

So you're, like, really in the dating app scene?

Oh, yeah. On that app,

I am Rosita Gonzalez Rodriguez Oropesa.

I am Afro-Cubana.

Jason.

Oh.

Andi, so you're saying you're on a dating app?

Yeah. I, I have a date tonight, actually.

- Oh. - Okay.

Cute.

I'm leaving here, and I'ma go change and get ready.

Well, good for you.

Thank you. I mean, I figured...

[breathing deeply]

I'm sick of Gary,

and I wanna see what else is out there.

Think you could really find that on an app?

I don't know. Maybe, but why not? And...

Gary doesn't want me to do it,

so I'm definitely gonna do it now.

[laughing]

Well, just be careful.

Yeah, I will. He told me the same thing.

- [Sabrina] Yeah. - Folks are crazy, i.e., Jonah.

Oh, that's right.

You probably shouldn't go alone.

I think I'll be fine. It's at a bar on Juniper Street.

Tonight?

Tonight.

You know, I, I think I might go with you.

Why?

I mean, if a pregnant Karen just, frrrw, then...

- Oh. - You know, you can't fight

no more. So I'm gonna go with you.

I'll be fine, you guys. I'll be fine.

Danni, you, you're going for your own reasons now.

- Mm-hmm. - No.

I'm actually trying not to,

'cause this fine-ass guy from my work...

- See, there it goes. - Let me finish!

- No, let me finish. - Mm-hmm.

I don't wanna go 'cause he, he invited me there tonight,

but I'm, I'm trying to, I'm trying to see

how things will go with Preston, actually.

I'm sorry, Preston?

Oh, we're gonna, we're dating now, seriously. Yeah.

- Okay. - [Andi] Oh, what?

I'm a girlfriend. Girlfriend energy.

- Wow, oh my gosh. - Oh, wow.

That's cool. We're finally official.

Oh, nice.

So, you know, got high,

I was thinking, I was like, "I'll, I'll go for it."

He was, he's been there for me past couple times.

So, anyway, gonna see how that goes.

[Andi] Okay.

You know what? I need to check on him.

I gave him some of my weed.

Oh, no.

[Danni] Yeah, he did not do well.

He was telling the stove to lock.

He was talking to the stove. You know what?

He should have come down by now.

- [Andi] Mm-hmm. - So I'ma go with you

and then I'll, I'll check.

Okay. Yeah, y'all, are you gonna change?

You know what? I gotta hold back.

- Oh, okay. - [Danni] Yeah.

We'll go to your place, shower, change, boom.

Hey, hey. Okay. Boom, boom, boom. Y'all could go.

Um, I'ma call Aaron and tell him

that he's not the father.

You sure you wanna do that?

Yes, yeah.

And you're...

I'm calm. Don't I seem calm?

- Very calm. - [Karen] Thank you.

- I'm calm. - Scary calm.

- Yeah. - Okay, Danni.

I don't know about anyone else, but, um,

[chuckling]

I'm not leaving until I receive a proper apology.

Mmm.

She's kinda right.

I'm sorry for everything I said to you, Andi.

Are you really?

- You said it so fast, sorry... - That was quick. It was quick.

I would love her to slow it down so I can really take it in.

It doesn't matter if you believe me or not.

- I said it. - Okay.

You know what, Karen? I'd like to get on that.

Uh, I'd like to get in on that. I gotta be honest with you.

[Kare] Yeah.

I would. I'm, you know, waiting.

Okay.

[inhaling]

I'm sorry to all you bitches.

Now get out of my house.

- You're still slinging bitches. - We love you.

- She's still slinging bitches. - That's love. Get out.

- Okay. - All I heard was,

"I apologize." That's all I needed to hear.

- And I love you. - Thank you, okay.

[Sabrina] She said it too.

- Skedaddle - Bye.

- Bye. - [Sabrina] Okay, bye.

[sighing]

[laughing]

Have fun. Be careful tonight, okay?

Hey, don't cuss nobody out.

[Karen] All right, y'all. Bye now.

[door closing]

[sighing]

Okay.

[sighing]

[ringback tone]

- Hey. - [Aaron] Hey.

What are you doing?

[Aaron] Nothing. What's going on?

Can you come by?

[Aaron] You don't even have to ask.

All right, because, uh, I need to talk to you.

[Aaron] Okay. I'm on my way.

All right. I'll see you soon. Thank you.

[Aaron] See you in a bit.

Bye.

[music]

[sighing]

Shit.

[music]

Where in the hell have you been?

Man, I told you I'm hurt.

Get your ass in here.

- I, I just got shot. - Get your ass in here.

[door opening]

Come on, man.

[sighing]

[groaning]

Hello.

[Que] Hi.

You remember me?

Oh, you're the one who gave me the deal?

Yes, I am.

Okay. Uh, what's going on?

Deal's off.

[chuckling]

I signed it. How is it off?

I didn't sign it on my end.

Why not? What happened?

You're a liar.

No, I'm not. What are you talking about?

You're lying.

- Yeah, you're-- - I'm telling you the truth.

Really? The other two guys you did the robbery with

said it was just you and them.

But Sabrina, Maurice...

Oh. Mmm. God, you are lying!

- I'm telling you the truth. - God, mm-mm.

You know what I hate more than a liar?

- I'm not lying. - [Burke] A liar who lies

on innocent people.

There is no evidence at all

that Sabrina has anything to do with this.

But you have him on tape.

So it was you and Maurice?

Well, I don't know if,

- if she was in on it, too. - [Burke] You don't?

- No. - Then why did you say that?

Because he told me that they did it.

You're going to jail.

- What? Why? - I'm dropping the charges

on them.

I'm telling you right now, you're making a huge mistake.

- It was them. - Uh, no, it was you.

And your co-conspirators, they got a deal.

- What? - [Burke] Yeah.

[chuckling]

I signed that deal first.

If Maurice hadn't come in here trying to confess--

- You, you, you see? You see? - No, no, no.

He tried to confess to protect Sabrina.

She probably threatened him.

You really are a piece of shit. You know that?

- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. - No, no, no, no. You wait.

And you're gonna wait in jail for a long time.

- You're making a mistake. - No, you made a mistake:

lying and then thinking that I would fall for it.

You know what? I need a lawyer.

You know what? You can call your lawyer from jail.

[chuckling]

So, no conscience about this at all?

I'm telling you, it was them. I had no part of this at all.

Get him outta my face.

[music]

[Logan] Officer, take him out.

[sighing]

[music]

Shit.

[breathing deeply]

Yeah, you can say that again.

You sure about all this?

Look at the record. Look at the tape.

You owe them an apology.

Whoa, whoa. No, no, no. I was just doing my job.

No, you were trying to get a raise.

Like you've never been aggressive.

Yeah, but I never slipped.

I did my job.

Look, you were just overeager.

You were wrong,

- but I did you a favor, Logan. - What you mean did me a favor?

Yeah. If I had prosecuted this,

you would've had two innocent people in jail.

That doesn't make you feel bad?

Listen, I was doing my job. That is all.

Your job is to protect and serve, you know,

- like you did at the airport. - I know that.

Yeah. I mean, you kept those kids

from getting trafficked.

That was great.

But the only reason you did it

- was to get a promotion. - No, no, I wanted to do that.

I wanted to help those kids.

Okay, then wanna help here too?

Leave Mr. Webb and Ms. Hollins alone.

[music]

Fatima.

Hmm?

You think this is a good idea?

Babe, yes, we're good. We don't want him to be hungry.

I know, but...

[breathing deeply]

What?

Tsk.

I just...

Nothing. I just, if I see something,

- I don't know how I'mma respond. - Babe,

just calm down, okay?

Just stay calm. It's fine.

You telling me that?

Yeah, what?

You the one always going in your purse, bang, bang, bang.

You ready to shoot everybody up. I been calm.

Okay, first of all,

I don't mess with anybody unless they mess with me first.

- Period. - That's cap.

Cap.

Hayden?

Uh, yeah, he mess with me first.

Touché.

- Yeah. - But

you did almost have him killed, just sayin'.

I mean...

[Zac] Hmm.

He deserved it.

- That he did. - Yeah. So...

Plus, you said you had something to tell me.

[sighing]

Yeah, I, um,

[inhaling]

I may have done somethin'.

What?

So, I hooked him up with a girl.

Okay, you told me that. What's the big deal about that?

He married her.

- What? - Yes.

How long they known each other?

Two weeks.

This-- thirsty like that?

[chuckling]

We're talking about Hayden here.

- That is true. - Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, well, what you mad about that for?

I don't know. I just didn't want it to go that far.

So, I mean, shit, at least he getting something out of it.

That's what I just wanted, her to take the edge off.

That's it. And for him to stay outta our business.

He definitely got the edge off.

Hopefully, he get that stick out of his ass

and leave our good thing alone.

Shit.

Now, don't you go over there feeling bad about it.

Okay, all right, I'm better.

Nah, don't hit me with the "all right," man up.

- Man up, thug life. - Wow.

You be ready to fight everybody, right?

If there's anybody who deserve this, it's Hayden.

You're right.

I know I'm right. Do I look concerned at all?

- No, you do not. - Thank you.

So man up. Get that shit tog-- all the way together.

All right.

Gimme three on that.

[chuckling]

That's what I'm talking about. Hayden.

But leave that shit alone.

Oh my gosh.

Hi.

Hi, I'm Tony.

Nice to meet you.

I feel like I've met you already.

How's that?

You know, it's just...

Hmm. He listens in on my phone calls.

You know, it's really because she talks so damn loud.

- So... - Mm. I, I hear you on that one.

Okay.

Okay. So, um, can I get you ladies some drinks?

Uh, we're not big drinkers, but I guess I'll have,

uh, what do you call it? A triple shot.

[laughing]

You know, I know you drink, right?

You know, I really don't appreciate

you listening in on my phone calls.

That's not my fault.

Sabrina, what can I get you?

- Martini, please. - Okay.

And I'll have a, uh...

A Martini and a Henny with a splash of Seven.

Damn, man.

You gotta tell me more about that later.

I will.

Looks like a lot of Coke

So, you'll have to tell me more about this lame excuse you found

Mmm. It's true.

That's my boy, Jordan. He didn't wanna come, but,

Danni, Sabrina, this is my boy, Rich.

- How you doing? - Good.

Wow. You didn't tell me Atlanta had women this beautiful.

You know, I just found out tonight.

- Thank you. - Mm-hmm. You're really tall.

Yeah, I got a little height on me.

It came in handy when we played, uh, college ball together.

Well, you know, some of us went to the pros.

Who we-- you?

Nah. Um,

our boy Jordan did though.

Yeah. He played, uh, basketball, then football.

- [Sabrina] Hmm. - He was great.

Was? What happened?

[sighing]

He got married.

What does...

- That mean? - Yeah, what does that mean?

I mean, that was the beginning of the end. He got married, so

just kinda took all of his energy.

It wasn't a good look.

Okay.

I feel like I know, but are you two married?

[laughing]

Nah, No. We're all members of the divorce club.

Yeah, we will never do it again.

Okay, let's see your hands first.

We're ringless.

- Oh. - You?

Well, I'm single.

- [Rich] It's good to know. - But we know what that

usually means for you gentlemen.

- [Danni] Mm-hmm. - Playing the field, right?

No, we're actually just out living, you know,

having a good time.

Oh, living?

- Spreading that community peen. - Mm-hmm.

Is that "living" strapped up or...

[chuckling]

If that was the case, yes, but you know, not like,

we're not like that anymore.

- [Danni] Mm-hmm. - [Sabrina] Mm-hmm.

What my man is trying to say is we just out here living.

- [Danni] Mmm. - We don't,

we don't get down like that.

Yeah. That whole life, that was, that was college,

- you know. We're grown now. - [Danni] Mm-hmm.

- [Rich] We're just living. - Mm-hmm.

- Oh, mm-hmm. - [Rich laughing]

So, you, you, you all wanna go some place a little more quiet?

No. We wanna keep an eye on our friend.

- Yeah. - What we came here to do.

We're here to be wingwomen.

I'm, I'm telling you, you don't have to worry about her.

I'm telling you, that's our friend.

- Right? - Yeah.

Oh, oh, Jordan. Yo...

I promise you, she's in good hands.

- Well, since he promised... - Right. It's...

Okay, okay.

So, we should get a table, yes?

[music]

If it's close to Andi, yeah.

We'll get one close to them.

- Okay. - [Rich] It's good to know.

- [Tony] All right. - Lead the way then.

[music]

[knock on door]

[music]

[sighing]

[music]

- Hi. - Hey.

Thank you for coming.

You kidding me? Of course.

Oh, you can have a seat at the table.

Okay.

Can I get you some water?

I would love some water.

[Karen] All right.

[Aaron] Thank you.

[Karen] Well, um,

[sighing]

first, I wanna just say thank you for all your help.

[chuckling]

Don't mention it.

I really appreciate it.

Well, honestly, I don't think it's gonna take much

for you to get back in there.

No?

[sighing]

This is great.

It is great.

[Karen] Yeah.

Thank you.

- Hmm. - And, uh,

I can give you the money if it helps.

I know you didn't take it from Zac.

I don't need the money.

You have it?

I can get it.

[laughing]

You just don't want it from me?

No.

Okay.

[music]

Also, I, um...

I don't want any of this anymore.

What does that mean?

You and me.

Okay, can you explain that?

Yeah. I, um...

I just decided that

starting today, I'm just gonna be single for a while.

[chuckling]

Gonna be single?

[Karen] Yeah.

Are you serious about it this time?

Yes, I am.

It's just gonna be me and this baby.

I'm gonna have to be around, obviously.

Why is that?

To take care of you and the baby.

Okay,

- Aaron, this is not your baby. - Oh my God.

Karen, can you stop that?

What?

- It's not. - [Aaron] Okay.

Okay, what is it that you think you know?

I just, I don't understand why you wanna keep saying

it's not mine when I know that it is.

Why are you so sure of that?

'Cause I just know.

'Cause someone at the hospital told you?

No, that's not why.

You sure?

Karen, no one at the hospital told me anything.

Okay. Well, Andi said that you saw the results.

I did see the results.

Okay, so?

- So what? - So who told you?

- Who showed it to you? - Oh my God, Karen. No one.

All right. You know what? Fine, you don't have to tell me,

but you just call whoever it is and tell them

that they got it wrong.

No, I saw the results.

- You saw the results? - Mm-hmm.

Okay. You saw the results?

I saw 'em.

- You saw these? - Yes.

Read that.

99.9%.

Aaron, keep reading.

[breathing deeply]

[music]

Damn.

Not a match.

Shit.

Yeah.

[music]

[sighing]

I saw that 99% and I, uh...

I just thought, you know.

Yeah.

Stupid.

I guess I just wanted it to be mine so bad that

I blocked everything else out.

But why?

What do you mean "why"?

Karen, I love you.

I wanna have a baby with you.

I wanna spend the rest of my life with you.

Okay.

All right, um...

[music]

Tsk.

This is not your baby.

[chuckling]

It's Zac's.

[music]

Clearly.

I mean, this is what you've been saying

all along, right?

Looks like you got what you wanted.

We can get off this train now.

Karen, I don't wanna get off this train.

I love you too much.

I love you too, but all of my attention

and energy needs to be for this baby now.

[inhaling]

Karen, I told you,

and I meant it when I said it, that I would be here

to take care of you and this baby,

- whether it was mine or not. - Okay.

[music]

So where do we stand?

What do you mean?

Can I not see you?

Not like this. Not in this way.

[music]

Can I at least call you,

check on you from time to time?

When I'm ready.

And I can take care of myself.

[music]

[Karen sighing]

I'm letting you go now.

[chuckling]

[breathing deeply]

[music]

This isn't about the girl at the salon, is it?

It's about all of it.

There's nothing I can do to

- change your heart or your mind? - No.

Aaron,

thank you for everything.

It's always been my pleasure.

You know I'd do anything for you, Karen.

I know.

Yeah.

Goodbye, Aaron.

[music]

[sighing]

[breathing deeply]

[music]

Aaron,

goodbye.

[music]

[breathing deeply]

Just remember, I'm only one phone call away,

always.

Okay.

[sighing]

Now, baby...

- I'm calm. Trust me. - Stay calm.

- I'm staying calm. - All, right,

I'm just making sure.

- Hey. - Hey.

What y'all out here doing? 'Cause if y'all here

waiting for Heather, she ain't here.

- No? - Mm-mmm.

Have you seen the boy?

Oh, he up in there.

Alone?

That-- up there with him.

Who?

Well, I heard he call himself Jay Bones.

That's the one that was here yesterday?

Well, I don't know about no yesterday.

She got so many men running up in and outta here,

shit, I can't keep count.

Did you call child welfare?

Yeah, I called. I called lots of times.

I keep calling.

And what'd they say?

Well, they called me today,

and they said somebody gonna be here tomorrow

to stop on through here.

Okay, good, good.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

And you'll tell them everything?

Abso-damn-lutely.

I'ma tell them everything.

Thank you.

But you know what? You'll tell me somethin', hmm?

Now, who are you to him?

I'm his father.

I know that. I could see that.

I'm talking about her.

She's my wife.

Your wife?

You cool with all this shit?

Excuse me?

You see me?

I couldn't deal with no man with no baby mama

and all that.

Everybody makes mistakes.

Well, son,

I don't know if anybody told you,

but that was one awful-ass damn mistake.

Thank you.

[screaming]

You hear that? He up there beating his ass.

[panting]

- [Fatima] Zac. - Hey!

Open this-- door!

Zac!

Open this-- door!

Who the-- are you?

Are you hitting him in here?

I said, who the-- are you?

I'm his father.

, get your bitch ass outta here!

Zac, come on.

Oh yeah. Listen to what your sexy-ass baby said.

Let's just call the police, Zac.

- Come on. - [Bones kissing through the air]

[Bones] The-- I thought?

[screaming]

[Fatima] Come on, Zac.

[Zac screaming]

,--! Bitch, bitch!

Stop it! Stop!

[Zac] Nah, you bitch!

Mother-- sleep! Mother-- sleep,--!

Uh! Uh!

I've never seen anything like that, I'm sorry.

That was my life. So...

[sighing]

Nah, I just don't understand anymore.

[Danni] Next on Sistas...

What I've learned is that, um,

every flame that you light quickly

will die quickly.

Cheers to a slow-burning flame.

Sure.

You and me, pathetic.

We are not the same, and Andi loves me.

You wanna see Andi's matches?

I got 'em right here.

Ain't nobody worried about those dudes.

Yeah, maybe you should be.
